Book review: 'Rogue Lawyer' by John Grisham

Saturday

Rudd's office is a bulletproof Ford cargo van. He carries guns. His driver and bodyguard is a guy named Partner, his only friend.

Rudd, "a long-haired roguish zealot sick enough to fight for the rights of child-killers and the like," attracts psychopaths like blood draws mosquitoes, juggles a crippling caseload and gets to see his son a couple of hours a week.

He wins more than he loses; any way he can.

One client, a crime boss on Death Row, wants his money back. Others want to involve Rudd in their crime.

John Grisham's "Rogue Lawyer" hits stores Tuesday.

The prolific author is back in the fast lane with this one.

C. F. Foster lives in Riverside.
